Poems dedicated to Bangabandhu -Mosarrof Hossain Bhuiyan

Being animated star

You will not come, then why the Himalayas are standing Why the Padma, Meghna, Jamuna are still flowing? Why the pen of poet and brush of painter say You're the most animated star floating in firmament. If you will not come, why the sun laughs in the sky again and again Ending the dark might of Srabon?

Why the wagtails in each evening to announce whistle That the flood of crowd will step on the road ending the night How many times the sun rises again and again rounding the earth, The moon is swimming in the moonlight The sea water comes up again and again at a high rage Water of The Padma, Meghna, Jamuna shooking at every term, They search you like insane at a everywhere in Bangla. Pen of poets and painter's brush convey us solace- You are in the sky as the floating animated star.

The Great Poet

Mixing Triphala's juice in the black ink of stove, With dry palm leaves and feathers of crane- The great poet came putting on thick black-framed glasses, His body was wrapped with dazzling white catkin.

Indestructible alphabet wake up when poet comes Water of river and sea comes up on the street Whole Bangla dresses with the color of Shimul-Polash The poet wrote an epic- named Bangladesh. Thundered message was in poet's voice, Meteor's light was in poet's eyes, Rock- solid fingers were in poet's grip, The poet's heart was as tender as the soil, Blood script of poet's body- Became the poems in birds' mouth.

Because you came

A call to the unique life in high-head How tough way to shed the blood of heart flows You resounded at glorious walks To wet in our bloodbath to this historic locality....

Because you came with the overwhelming speed of heroes Gallinule's sang the song of delighted tunes Laughed in open heart in the lucid water of Kajoldighi Blueish water hyacinth, heron-white lotus, blue lotus of love.

Because you came with the overwhelming speed of heroes Breaking down the old chain of subjugation Today we are free like an independence bird Tied-less ever restless flowing life like dreamy river.

Because you came with the overwhelming speed of heroes We got this golden Bengali the desired independence The rare honour to stand in high-head in the world You have given us an everlasting independent Bangladesh.
